i just found a centrifugal pump like that in the woods at my grandparents i cleaned it up got it working and my Briggs FH seems to run it real well even just idaling along
i cant wait untill i finally get my BKN running. i think i have the timing pretty close but i am not 100% sure yet. still cant find the timing mark on the cam gear. once i get that sorted out i need to get a proper carb for it and make up a fuel line. then i have to clean the really nasty crap out of the crank case. i'll probably flush it out with kerosene for now then change the oil a couple times. but i love the huge flat belt pulley it has on it!
i have 2 early goulds piston pumps! one is slightly bigger. they both work really well. the smaller one i restored bright red and i run it with the briggs wi and some times the fh. the fh doesnt run it quite as well because the smaller pump is a high speed pump. but it runs the bigger pump great. it is not a high speed model. the fh revs lower than the wi but both are 1/2hp engines! i love to hear the fh work!
what kind is it? i just found an old brass roller pump at my grandmas last week! i hooked it up to a westinghouse motor i hag lyingaround and found it works exelent! it moves mor water than it looks capable of! more than my red piston pump anways and it is not even a quarter of the size! ill have to post it!

I am trying to get a piston pump to mount my Briggs FH on. I think that would look good and preform well. Thanks for the comment.

I have yet to hear my FH run. I'm still working on it (no spark, low compression). I can't wait!
